To find the length of the hypotenuse (c) in a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem, which states that (c^2 = a^2 + b^2), where (a) and (b) are the lengths of the other two sides.
1. Square the lengths of both sides: (a^2) and (b^2).
2. Add those two values together.
3. Take the square root of the sum to find c.
For example, if (a = 3) yards and (b = 4) yards:
1. (3^2 = 9)
2. (4^2 = 16)
3. (9 + 16 = 25)
4. (c = sqrt{25} = 5) yards
Please provide the specific lengths of side (a) and side (b) to calculate the hypotenuse (c) accurately!
To find the length of the hypotenuse ( c ) in a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem, which states:
[ c^2 = a^2 + b^2 ]
where ( a ) and ( b ) are the lengths of the other two sides of the triangle.
1. Square the lengths of both sides: calculate ( a^2 ) and ( b^2 ).
2. Add those results together.
3. Take the square root of that sum to find ( c ).
Once you calculate ( c ), round your answer to the nearest tenth. If you provide the lengths of sides ( a ) and ( b ), I can help you calculate ( c ) more specifically!
